The arrival of Hongtang's army was really not fast enough, at least in the eyes of the general soldiers of Kong Zhenhui stationed in Laiwu County.

Of course, this cannot be said to be bad news for the general army of Kong Zhenhui and the more than 15,000 soldiers under his command, and everyone hopes to at least live a little longer.

After all, no one knows who will survive to the end in the battlefield and become the lucky one who survived.

Xinjing City, in the prosperous capital of China, a gray-white sealed building outside the fifth ring road on the outskirts of the city, a door plaque is erected at the gate of the building, on which are written "Huaguo Institute of Science and Biology" several big characters, and several Chinese soldiers standing guard with real guns and live ammunition at the gate fully illustrate the important position of the institute.

At a depth of 500 meters below the ground of this huge concrete building, a complex group of research laboratories is busy with countless researchers in white coats.

In the deepest part of the lab, a female researcher in white overalls with a pair of thick glasses on the bridge of her nose sits under the lab's most advanced electron microscope, staring intently at the sealed slice of the experiment under the microscope.

While observing the slice samples under the microscope, the female researcher was also distracted by the camera next to the microscope to record the experiment.

"In the 3774th experiment, the modified C2 cold virus was targeted and injected into the experimental receptor, and through observation, it was found that the 13869th to 13884th pairs of genes in the genome of the experimental body changed, proving that the targeted virus has been modified to the gene chain."

"After 15 days of careful observation, the physical fitness of the experimental body has changed, the physical function has been enhanced, the mood changes are prominent, the patient is easily restless, and the eating is frequent......"

“……”

The orderly and slow presentation of the facts was recorded by a camera microphone activated in front of the female researcher and stored in the lab's virtual 3D display computer.

"Chen Yu, Chen Yu!"

After the experiment was recorded, the sloppy female research institute raised her head at this time and called out to the assistant who should have appeared in the laboratory.

"I'm sorry, Dr. Zhang Yao, Dr. Chen Yu sent a video message this morning to ask for leave, his cold is getting worse and he needs to go to the hospital for a day of examination, and I will replace him today to assist you in your work."

A researcher, also dressed in overalls, quickly came over to explain to the female researcher after hearing her shout.

“……”

The doctoral researcher named Zhang Yao looked up at the researcher in front of him who was vaguely familiar, and he really couldn't remember the other party's name: "You, what's your name?" ”

"Dr. Yao Zhang, my name is Xu Yang, I am a graduate student from Qinghua University, and I am an assistant researcher to you and Dr. Chen Yu."

The young researcher was not at all surprised that the beautiful woman in front of her had forgotten her name, everyone knew that the woman in front of her, who had outstanding attainments in international genetics and biology, was originally such a character, except for the knowledge she was familiar with, the rest of the things were basically not as good as her eyes, let alone written down by her.

"Oh well, it's time to feed the little creatures in the animal lab, go feed them!"

With a gentle word of oh, Dr. Zhang Yao casually ordered the matter, as if he didn't want to remember the other party's name at all.

"By the way, remember to wear protective clothing!"

When it was over, as if suddenly remembered, Dr. Zhang Yao raised his head and cautiously admonished Yang Xu.

"Okay."

After doing it for a long time, what Zhang Yao ordered was just feeding a group of mice, but even if it was just this small thing, it can be seen that he also attached great importance to Yang Xu's actions, because this was the first time that Dr. Zhang Yao had ordered him to do since he entered the laboratory.

The place where the experimental mice are fed is only separated by a wall from Dr. Zhang Yao, but between this wall, it is full of a complete set of state-of-the-art sterilization equipment, and every time Zhang Yao and Chen Yu enter the living area of the mice, they need to go through a series of cumbersome regulations.

It was not the first time that Yang Xu had set foot in this laboratory, which was fed hundreds of little mice, but it was the first time in the three months since he joined Dr. Zhang Yao's research group that he had set foot in this laboratory like today.

The originally cute and tame experimental mice have shown a completely different side from the outside world in this laboratory.

Some mice have stripped off their fur, revealing the flesh-colored skin under their fur, while Yang Xu, who has good eyes and is wrapped in thin skin, can even see every blood vessel on this mouse's body, including capillaries.

Some of the mice were irritable, and as Yang Xu approached, they used their already twisted claws to dig into the ultra-tempered glass that was not much more fragile than diamonds, even if they tore off their claws because of this, and a few little claws were drenched in blood, they seemed to have no feeling at all.

More than that, they looked dying, lying languishingly in the glass lattice that belonged to them, until Yang Xu sent a piece of nutrients into the lattice, they smelled the smell of food and began to squirm, struggling to maintain their small life.

When he set foot here for the first time, Yang Xu was almost stunned, he never thought that a little mouse would have such a hideous side. But as time passed, he got used to it, and he no longer had the shocked expression he had at the beginning, although he was always inevitably nervous every time he approached them.

After feeding all the mice through the automatic distributor and carefully checking the physical condition of these mice and finding that no of them were damaged or dead, Yang Xu began to prepare to pack up his things and exit this sealed and independent nursery room.

"Dut!! Honk!!! Honk!!! ”

The sirens that would be hung in every laboratory suddenly began to emit a dazzling red light, as well as the piercing and sharp sound, which not only alarmed Yang Xu, who was about to leave, but also alarmed a group of mice who had just eaten, causing a riot of "chirp and squeak".

"Alert! Alert! ”

"Please take protective measures for all laboratory staff, do not go out, the laboratory building will be closed in one minute!"

"Please take protective measures for all laboratory staff, do not go out, the laboratory building will be closed in one minute!"

As soon as the alarm passed, an unwavering simulated human voice began to give instructions to all the staff working in the underground laboratory.

In the continuous sound of instructions, nearly 300 staff members in the entire underground laboratory were at a loss, and no one knew what was going on.
